Many people downstairs couldn't help but crowd up, staring at this 'holy decree'.

This is Zhou Zheng's handwriting, the word 'imperial businessman' stamped with the seal, whether it is status or actual influence, it is unimaginable!

As soon as Yang Hu looked at these two words, even if his heart was turbulent and surging, no matter how difficult it was to calm down, at this time, he still knelt on the ground with a puff and said loudly: "The villain is grateful to God, the emperor's grace is mighty, and the Yang family will definitely be broken to retribution!" ”

The rest of the Yang family was also excited, not to mention anything else, just these two words, at least three generations of the Yang family will be rich and rival the country!

The people around him, red-eyed, didn't know how much, stared at the Yang family like a piece of fat, and they all wanted a piece of the pie.

Zhou Zheng helped Yang Huyi up, smiled and comforted a few words.

Yang Hu wiped his tears, smiled reluctantly, held the paper in his arms, and didn't let go.

There were people upstairs, and those who came up from downstairs, staring at Yang Huyi, and then looking at Zhou Zheng, their eyes were blank, and their expressions were full of longing.

Zhou Zheng looked at the expressions of a group of people, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the imperial court has formulated some rules, and some special powers will be given to businessmen who have contributed to the imperial court and performed outstandingly, and they will be implemented in Nanzhili next month, and you all have a chance." ”

Listening to Zhou Zheng's words, a group of people seemed to see something, and their eyes were burning and shining.

Hu Jianghe looked at this group of people and said lightly: "There are too many vacancies in the imperial court, and a large number of them will be transferred from Nanzhili's side. ”

Official position!

Everyone's hearts were beating wildly, not only the official positions on the side of the imperial court, but also the vacant official positions of the Nanzhili Society!

There are all dignitaries here, and there are too many networks, even if they are pure businessmen, in-laws, villagers, etc., some are networks, and some are people who can be recommended!

The scene suddenly became lively, Jiang Ninghou took the lead, and there was a burst of singing praises and praises, and beautiful words emerged one after another.

With this beginning, this feast is lively.

Not only Zhou Zheng's table, but also the surrounding and downstairs are also jubilant and lively, and from time to time someone comes up to toast and greet.

At the tables downstairs, I don't know how many heads gathered together and whispered.

"This kind of treatment of the Yang family must not be the first one, we must fight for it!"

"That's right. The Yang family at least picked a good head, and we also donated money and land later, in addition to salt, there are other things to do, and tax exemption, the family's first imperial examination, these have to fight! ”

"It's about the family's century-old foundation, and we must fight for it now!"

……

"The three sons of our family, the original quota has long been insufficient, if we can get permission, three days of scientific examination, even if we are one, we can change from a cheap merchant family to a scholarly family!"

"My brother-in-law has been on probation for three years, and I haven't earned an official position, if I can operate it and release it, not to mention anything else, at least I have a backer!"

"I can't wait, I didn't see so many people, what banquet is over, I have to operate now!"

"How does it work? Is the governor coming? Is the Governor coming? Let's take the silver and the title deed over, can we still drive me away? ”

"Yes, yes, we can't go, let the family do it, we must be fast!"

……

In the midst of the discussion, Zhou Zheng 'chatted' with Jiang Ninghou, Yang Huyi and others, and occasionally asked a few people.

How many people are flattered, trembling, excited, and worried.

Not far from Juxian Building, listening to a few carriages, there are also many flower boats by the river.

These are all invited by the Yang family to 'help the fun', and the dancers, singers, and famous prostitutes inside are waiting quietly.

On a flower boat, Dong Xiaowan and Liu Ru sat opposite each other, silent.

Dong Xiaowan and Mao Bijiang are completely over, and Liu Ru is ambiguity with Qian Qianyi has also ended.

Liu Ru has been back in Yingtian for two days, Qian Qianyi avoided it, and was busy with business all day, and now, he went to Hangzhou, and even Zhou Zheng arrived in Yingtian, but he didn't come back.

……

A feast that doesn't end until late at night.

Jiang Ninghou and Yang Huyi accompanied Zhou Zheng and walked slowly on the edge of the Qinhuai River.

Yang Hu leaned on crutches and followed the side, still looking uneasy.

It was Jiang Ninghou, whether he was relying on the old and selling the old or having a two-skin face, and said with a smile: "Zheng Xibo, today's meal is delicious, I haven't eaten ...... for many years."

Zhou Zheng glanced at him and said, "Jiang Ninghou, it's rare?" ”

Jiang Ninghou was stunned, and hurriedly smiled and said: "I just eat and drink, I don't care about other things, I don't have anything to do without leaving the house, that's why I live so long, Zheng Xibo, please forgive me." ”

Zhou Zheng smiled, this is a smart person, glanced at Yang Huyi again, and said, "Do what I say, don't be so nervous." ”

Yang Hu smiled bitterly and said, "The Yang family is too small, and the big cake of Xibo may kill us." ”

Zhou Zheng laughed and said: "Nanzhili, there will soon be a national joint chamber of commerce for all walks of life, as well as the general chamber of commerce, as well as maritime trade, and there must also be a special approval." You Yang family all have a place. ”

Yang Huyi's expression was tense, and he hurriedly said: "Yang Huyi remember, the Yang family understands the rules." ”

Zhou Zheng raised his eyebrows, he didn't know if he was talking about the traditional 'filial piety', and he didn't bother to pay attention to it, and said: "Someone will come to talk to you about the specific details, don't leave in Yingtian recently." ”

Yang Hu hurriedly responded, following Zhou Zheng's footsteps.

Zhou is blowing the wind, sobering up and strolling along the river.

Zhou Zheng left the next day and hurried back to Beijing. The capital is a chaotic place, and if he leaves for too long, there will be problems.

Just as he was leaving, Nan Zhili was lively.

First of all, there were gentry who united more than 500 people to write to the imperial court, supporting the reform of the law, and denouncing those who opposed the change.

Then, the officials, businessmen, and gentry all disliked the 'tide of donations', and in just half a day, the Yamen, the governor of Nanzhili, received nearly 5,000 acres of land and more than 200,000 taels of silver.

There are also some large and small merchants, especially rice, grain, salt, etc., who have demanded that only 'new currency' be charged, and carry large bags and small bags to Zhou's ticket number to exchange for new currency.

For a time, Nan Zhili set off a 'law change' storm, and the original opposition forces were destroyed and decayed, and they seemed insignificant in the vast public opinion.

Lu Daqi took the opportunity to act and promoted the implementation of many things, which was smoother than before, and it was simply handy.

Yang Hu and others did not dare to be idle, and constantly held various meetings to discuss the 'Chamber of Commerce', and to cooperate with the imperial court to change the law at the civil level.

Nanzhili became hot and rolling like a tide because of Zhou Zheng's trip.

Naturally, this also made many people change color, and the imperial court's land purchase action was greatly promoted, and Lu Daqi distributed the land while collecting it, and he was busy with his feet not touching the ground.

And other provinces, especially the governors recommended by Zhou Zheng, also followed suit and promoted innovation.

There were too many maladministrations in the Ming Dynasty, and it would offend many people at every turn, and taking advantage of this east wind would save too much effort.

And those people in Zhou Yanru have different attitudes, some sneer, some sit and watch, and rarely move.
